Join our Israel Matters group on Thursday, June 18 at 6:30pm for a discussion of the new book, The Future is Peace, by Palestinian Aziz Abu Sarah and Israeli Maoz Inon. The conversation will be facilitated by Lior Lekner, our BHS shlicha (emissary from the Jewish Agency for Israel to the Brooklyn Jewish community).
In their book, Aziz and Maoz, lifelong peace activists and guides to Israel/Palestine, wrote about their life-changing journey across their lands and the mythic, political, and personal histories that divide—and bind—them and their peoples. Having each lost family to the conflict, Maoz and Aziz forged an unlikely bond of friendship when the world would expect them to become enemies.
You can read more about Aziz and Moaz and their work, including their recent interview with Jon Stewart. Please plan to read the book prior to the discussion.
Please note this event is for BHS members only.
